Be Thankful for Cauliflower: While cauliflower shares many of the same great benefits as other vegetables, it is special because it is powerfully detoxifying. At a cellular level, cauliflower’s nutrients work to support natural detoxification to help cells renew themselves and stay healthy. Cauliflower is also high in choline and known to support brain health (3).

Be Thankful for Green Beans: Green beans contain many vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytochemicals that support health and fight disease, just like many vegetables. But, there’s more to green beans. They are a natural of silicon. Silicon is important for bone health, especially in post-menopausal women. Amazingly, it may reduce fractures and improve bone density (4).
